Meeting time for the Phoenix Local meeting is:
3:30 P.M the FIRST Thursday of every month.

PRELIMINARY RESULTS OF CONTRACT RATIFICATION: The contract is ratified by a large margin.

The next round of layoffs will be coming SOON.
Right now it looks to be mid February to early March.

This Local, like the other 27 Installation Locals can only wait and see what the "company" in all its "Great Wisdom" has planned for November.

Just when does the SALARIED group get reduced in size ???

What next, will they actually wrap their silky fingers around a cable wedge and do cable mining ??

If you may possibly know any of the people that have been notified of a transfer into our area talk with them and assist them anyway possible. Please remember that they are as much a pawn in this chess game as we are. This Locals goal is to protect the jobs of all members.

PLEASE keep the Local informed of any and all address and phone number changes that you make.

Early contract negotiations start October 7th and hopefull have a contract by the 31st of October on a TWO (2) year contract.

Today is:
Thursday, the 17th of August in the year 2017, at 9:42:35pm

The changes made each time will be in italics (If I can remember to do that.

Our CARAs are in a REAL fight for their jobs. It appears that Lucent is attempting to have "management" assume the responsibilities of Union represented members. This is not only morally WRONG it is TOTALLY against NLRB rules and regulations. This will be fought by this and every local nationwide.

Our CARAs have been the lifeblood of Installation, keeping our time charging correct, EWDs, FHDs, mileage, vacation, carry-over vacation, jury duty, Sunday starts, early starts, temporary transfer (time, lodging and mileage), overtime correct and too many codes for us to keep straight for a LONG time.

Support your CARA in every way possible.

If anyone has any suggestions, give me (Lyle) a call.Or drop a note in email.
